A voice for the Unheard

Chadash is committed to giving Nigerian Widows and Orphans a voice in the society through economic empowerment, welfare support and advocacy. These individuals are vulnerable and are often treated unfairly in the society, and their livelihood threatened by a litany of socio-cultural beliefs. Our aim is to empower them through skill acquisition, health care services and enlightenment, advocacy programs, and intervene through upgrading physical structures of orphanage homes to meet their social needs.

Rationale behind the name CHADASH?

Chadash is a Hebrew lexicon that literally means Renew, Restore, and Repair. The word encapsulates our purpose and vision to rekindle the hope of less privileged Widows and Orphans in the society.
